S&W sent me a free re-coil spring for my 4506. Very nice of them. Question? I noticed the new spring is about 1/2-3/4" longer. Everything works (without firing it). Normal?
Thanks

That's why you're replacing it...
I say normal.
If it has a small & large end, the small end goes toward the rear."He is your friend, your partner, your defender, your dog.

^ Yup.
The old one is tired and collapsed a bit.

Is it a double spring?(spring within a spring). I have a 4013 and have been thinking about changing the recoil spring(its a double). Never had the chance to breakdown a 4506. Cool gun.NRA & CRPA member

Single spring.
ProMag still has a few left (once gone, their gone) of the 10rd mags. I grabbed two for $16 each + $3 ship.
Thanks! I assume the old one was oooold
Both sides seem to be the same size.Last edited by jeep7081; 06-25-2011, 7:44 PM.-If you insult me for my grammar errors, what makes you think I understand the insult?

Yes that is normal. My new 4506 factory recoil springs are much longer than the worn down spring in the gun. It's a pain in the arse to put them in and once they are in, chamber checks are an even bigger pain. Shoots much nicer and brass lands in a neat pile with new springs. Dont know about S&W but police agencies recomend replacing them every 3-4k rounds. Now your ready to shoot some HOT +P AMMO!Last edited by c3 rolling; 06-25-2011, 9:11 PM.Comment
